Hydraulic arm counterbalance floor crane with a manual hand winch for raising and lowering the load. Can be made to customer specification

This design of this portable floor crane incorporates many key features that make it one of the most versatile items of workshop lifting equipment that we sell.

The addition of a hand operated winch (Certified for lifting) makes the crane more versatile because with this the hook can reach all the way to the floor; with the fixed hook on the standard crane the hook will only reach as far as the arm will lower! In fact with the use of a hand winch (hoist ) there is no limit to the lifting height and the therefore the crane could be used to raise and lower equipment from below floor level, for example to raise a sump pump from a water well etc... Also available is 12v DC power lift and travel if required. We also make special versions of the crane to our customers own specification with bespoke dimensions and lifting capacities, jib reach and height.

152kg, 254kg, 508kg, 750kg, 1000kg and 2000kg Capacities available
